Patriot Day

Standard

As much as I hate the name, today is a day to remember those lost seven years ago. Seven years. How could it be that long ago?

Today is also the day in which a large white sheet is covering the in-progress building across the alley at work. We think they’re fireproofing things, and the sheet is to keep our building from getting inadvertently sprayed. But it looks like it’s snowing out there. Looking out the window just gives a blank view, and it’s very disconcerting.
Today is also the day of our last regular season make-up of a rainout of a rainout softball game. As my coach put it, nothing short of biblical will stop us from playing, so I forsee a soggy evening on a muddy or grassy field. Maybe my cleats are dried out from last week…
